Wind Instrument After Greek God

I must admit, the first time I unboxed the instrument, I was amazed at the build quality. It has some heft, the keys are properly and ergonomically placed and you know Akai really took their time to perfect this wind controller. But as a long time saxophone player, the first time I actually played some scales, I was quite disappointed - it didn't feel like a saxophone. I was beginning to regret my purchase and thought about exchanging it for the WX5. So I gave it a few more days. Days turned to weeks, and I am beginning to appreciate this instrument. Keep practicing those scales, breathing with the mouthpiece and you realize how this is such an amazing wind controller. I made a mistake thinking that this is a replacement for a saxophone in an apartment situation. In reality, you should think about how this instrument can be an extension to your musical endeavors. The possibilities you can do with the sounds and playability are endless. There are a few usable synths prebuilt, but I suggest using the Akai EWI 5000 Editor to really play and edit your sounds then save it to the user bank. Also there are synths out there that can be used if you plug the EWI as just a midi wind controller; unfortunately you can't upload other synth sounds into the controller. Definitely give it some time to get used to the instrument especially moving from one octave to another. Keep practicing and you'll appreciate that there's hardly any moving parts here. I was opposed at it first since horns have that tactile and key feedback. But with the touch sensitivity, it really felt I was playing an instrument from the future. Again, you just have to get used to it - think about when mobile phones shift from physical keyboards to the modern phones we have today. And here I am today still keeping my purchase and writing a review. I thank Akai for making a top-notch wind controller and continuing the support for the modern electronic wind musician.

God!

Thank god I've got a brilliant ballhead. After years of not having a respectable tripod, I decided for my trip to Utah now would be the time. I regret not having purchased one sooner. I hope this lasts a lifetime of infrequent use ;-)

All god

I originally bought this to mic a cello as the available pickups were unsatisfactory. After a makeshift adaptation of the instrument clip we were getting a nice, rich, warm, full tone right away without even touching the EQ. We've been using this for frequent gigs--weddings, parties etc.--for about 4 or 5 years now and it's still working perfectly. This unit has served us so well at such a great price, I just bought 3 more from B&H to mic the string section of the jazz orchestra.

After using standard velcro ties for my instrument cables, I was always looking for something better. Something that wouldn't slip and slide all up and down the cable. In these, I finally found the perfect solution and my cables are much more tidy.

I brought this camera to Southern Italy and took some lovely photos of the Greek temples in Paestum. The zoom helped with composition avoiding onlookers. I printed a few 8x12 Prints with no grain issues. The camera fits comfortably in a jacket pocket and looks quite unassuming.. Perfect for street photography.

As everybody knows photography is coming from the Greek words write with light. Some thousands years later Leica gave us the absolute tool to do that. This lens can do everything in any conditions. On top of that is amazingly sharp even on wide open. I know that is quite expensive but if you want a lens that will be your best buddy go for it.
